These games were removed for reason. As I remember it was stated
that (in USA law?) plain linking to copyright-infriging material
(which we anyway do, even if not installing these files) is a
problem. I think the (only) correct way to safely leave it in the
ports is to reroll the distfile without unsafe material. That should
also save you from the need to add confusing options/warnings to
the port.
